For the official LLVM Toolset documentation, see the upstream documentation.

Note

The llvm-doc package provides only a reference to the upstream documentation.

1.5. Installing the CMake build manager

The CMake build manager is a tool that manages the build process of your source code independently from your compiler. CMake can generate a native build environment to compile source code, create libraries, generate wrappers, and build executable files.

Complete the following steps to install the CMake build manager.

Procedure

  • Install CMake:

    # yum install cmake
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

1.6. Installing the CMake documentation

You can install documentation for the CMake build manager on your local system.

Procedure

  • Install the cmake-doc package:

    # dnf install cmake-doc
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Verification

  • Open /usr/share/doc/cmake/html/index.html in a browser that is installed on the same host.
